Handy Don 12,232 #4 Posted February 1, 2022 I wanted a motorcycle so bad I could taste it. Asked my Dad and he said "Sure. As soon as you can pay for it with cash, plus the insurance, plus the extra cost on our health insurance (extra for motorcycle operators), and all the maintenance." Never happened. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Mac 8,619 #5 Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) He is quick isnt he..... He better not leave that jacket unattended. You think it would fit me? At 11 yrs old the only thing this D-Mac was racing was my Hot Wheels cars. My cousin used to drag race motorcycles. He had a Kawasaki KZ1000 with wheelie bars. 1/4 turn throttle and it was wide open. I did have a number of motorcycles as a grew older but all were cruisers. No crotch rockets. I did however used to take my car to the drag strip every friday night when I was 20. Never won anything but sure had fun. I had a Ford Maverick Grabber. It had a 302 engine, duel point ignition, headers, Hays street/ strip clutch, Hurst Competition Plus shifter, nice little cam. Was a nice little car, Got many speeding tickets in it. Edited February 1, 2022 by D_Mac 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D_Mac 8,619 #7 Posted February 2, 2022 Got me thinking about that car I had to dig up some pics. Funny Ford is bringing back the Maverick but not as a car but as a truck. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
